After a disgusting experience with my MaxFactor 2000 Calorie mascara suddenly smelling like the worst smell I have ever smelled in my life, I decided to start using my new Armani Eyes To Kill Mascara. I found out about this on Meg's blog a while back and thought it looked great on her.

I can tell this is going to become a firm favourite of mine, in my eyes (geddit) it seems to be just as good as my favourite ever YSL False Lash Effect Mascara.

I think I have fairly long(ish) eyelashes anyway but they seem to be pretty sparse. I find the issue with mascaras for me is that volumizing ones tend to just clump my eyelashes together and I end up looking like I only have 5 really fat eyelashes.

What I really like about this particular mascara is that it elongates and thickens your lashes without clumping them together. I don't really know what else to say about the way it looks, it basically makes my lashes look as good as they can. I don't like REALLY thick, clumpy lashes in the daytime but that might just be me.

Somehow the application of this is incredibly smooth and it seems to dispense just the right amount of mascara. I know these are all tiny, stupid details but hey...they matter if you're going to invest in a really good mascara.

Do NOT get me started on the packaging...I sometimes like to just stare at it, hold it...I'm kidding (CAN I HEAR A MINI LOL?!) but it is beautiful.

This lasts on me all day, but I don't ever have an issue with make-up running down my face unless I'm in a blizzard so who knows!
